checkpatch: fix EXPORT_SYMBOL handling following a function
The following fragment defeats the DEVICE_ATTR style handing, check for and ignore the close brace '}' in this context: int foo() { } DEVICE_ATTR(link_power_management_policy, S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR, ata_scsi_lpm_show, ata_scsi_lpm_put); EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dev_attr_link_power_management_policy); Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
